Run calicoctl ipam release --help to display the following help menu for the
command.

Usage:

Description:
The ipam release command releases an IP address from the Calico IP Address
Manager that was been previously assigned to an endpoint. When an IP address
is released, it becomes available for assignment to any endpoint.
Note that this does not remove the IP from any existing endpoints that may be
using it, so only use this command to clean up addresses from endpoints that
were not cleanly removed from Calico.
